Welcome, I'm Michael. As a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist, I offer adult ADHD assessments and specialize in helping people find lasting relief from anxiety and OCD. I hold a Master's in Social Work from New York University, and bring over a decade of experience in the field of mental health. My own journey with anxiety began during adolescence in Vancouver. In my search for healing, I spent years studying meditation and plant medicine in Japan and Peru. Through these experiences, I learned that there isn’t a single miracle cure, but a variety of skills and strategies we can use to cultivate well-being.

It was through her own personal journey that Trish came to find her expertise as a Somatic Psychotherapist; helping individuals, couples and families step into balance, health and connection so that they can live in joy, vibrancy and passion! After full recovery from a skiing accident that had her in a wheel chair for months, she began to feel uptight all the time, depressed, had unhealthy eating patterns, an autoimmune diagnosis, and disconnect in her marriage. She had forgotten all about joy, vibrance & passion or how to even reach for those things. If you have ever experienced these feelings & lack connection, Trish can help.

We seek alignment, clarity, and real change. Maybe you feel stuck, disconnected, or like something inside just isn’t matching the life you’re trying to live. On the outside things may look fine, but internally there’s a sense of friction, confusion, or misalignment with who you really are. My approach is grounded in Identity & Congruency, and focuses on helping you reconnect with a more authentic, integrated sense of self.

I provide therapy based on each individual’s specific needs, offering a flexible and personalized approach to support your journey toward healing and growth. Many people come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck in painful relationship patterns, overwhelmed by self-criticism, or disconnected from themselves and others. Often, these struggles persist despite years of insight, effort, or attempts to simply “push through.”
